Why convert REDDITVAULT to TXT?
The request usually means "show me my 12 words as text." But the file only contains an encrypted version of the phrase plus its encryption type, so a .TXT copy would just be unreadable ciphertext. Reddit deliberately stores it this way so a leaked backup cannot expose your wallet.
How to convert REDDITVAULT to TXT
Rename to .txt to view raw contents
Copy the file and change .redditvault to .txt, then open it in Notepad. You will see JSON with the encrypted phrase, not readable words.
Text editor (Notepad, TextEdit)
Open the file to confirm its structure, but expect encrypted data. There is no supported way to output the plain phrase to text.
Reddit app to reveal your phrase
To see your actual words, open Reddit Vault in the mobile app and use its recovery-phrase screen; then write the words down yourself.
